Topic: Canon DSLR Body Rumors for 2013 (Read 39577 times)

Not everyone wants/needs high frames per second. When was the last time you shot a portrait at 10 FPS When was the last time that you hot landscape at 10 FPS When was the last time you shot table-top at 10 FPS When was the last time you shot your vacation at 10 FPS ??

Never. But last week I shot portraits at 12 fps. A few months ago, I shot my vacation at 12 fps. This morning I shot macro at 12 fps.

The 1Dsx will do for me provided Canon manage to leapfrog Nikons current world beating performance with the 800E. If they can achieve that, then I will be in heaven, if not, then its goodbye Canon. I'm not hanging about if they continue to produce cameras with noise and banding issues but with excessive ISO figures.

Having said that, my present 5DII is OK for the moment, so I would rather they spent more time getting it right than a rushed "knee jerk reaction".

Just interested, what do you think an $8,000+ 38+MP camera will do for you when you can currently live with a $1,300 21MP 5D MkII? What do you shoot now, and what do you do with your output that would necessitate such an upscale?

D800 has higher dynamic range and also more resolving capability. Does not infer you need the high MP, just some of the other features....

If life is all about what you do in the time that you have, then photography is about the pictures you take not the kit that took it. Still it's fun to talk about the kit, present or future

Your needs and usage patterns aren't everyone's.

he did start the post with "Not everybody"

I always shoot group portraits with a burst.....there always seems to be someone blinking, yawning, or that momentary facial twitch.... and if I don't get a clean one I resort to photoshop.... but when I do this it is in the "slow burst" mode of around 2 frames per second.

That 70D rumor has got to be fake. How can they literally take away features and call it a new camera and sell it for a higher price? The T4i will surpass it in fps? Wow...

I've been waiting for this camera for a year now and these rumors are just a slap to the face. Hopefully it has 6fps and better image quality and AF system than 60D. Give up higher frame rates in video too.

That's how I felt at first. Then looking at the image more closely, it was clear that the characters after the 3.0 for the 70D were different than the characters after the 10 for the 7DII. I figured it was for a 3.0 Inch Vari-Angle LCD.

Others who can read Japanese have confirmed that it refers to screen and not FPS. Whew!

I smiled a little..."worldbeating"...

And as for what you will require Canon to deliver on their high MP flagship at thousands of dollars more... so, you, a 5D II user, will continue to "hang about" ... I am sure they are shaking in their boots
